Pet Sematary is out, and is the most recent rendition of the Stephen King classic book, and this is quite good. 

 PS, is not ridiculously compelling, and this is not going to change cinematic history, but it is fun to see new life put back into great King classics.  This stars Jasen Clark, John Lithgow, and Amy Seimetz. This is what you would think, scary at times, with a hint of cheese and camp tossed in.  Visually this is quite good, and there is nice use of classic scare tactics, that are predictable, but work all at the same time.  This also has a nice thread that runs through it, that makes you examine your own thoughts on death, and what comes next.  King is great at that!

Seimetz is really great as the terrified mother of two, who is trying to make sense of the supernatural death setting she finds her and her family in. She is the star of this movie. 

If you have never seen this in any form before, this is going to be very intense at times.  If you're a veteran of the book and/or various versions that came before, I feel you may agree, this is the best rendition yet, and by far. 

So I know I am late to the party!  We recently cut ties with AT&T and got Apple TV, we also have Prime and Hulu.

I hear everyone "binge" watching this and that, and we finally discovered what that is all about!

Now I know this may seem nerdy, but my husband usually commands the remote, so our second show was

Rudy Max Smart Travels/Europe.  Interesting, beautiful, and will give you the travel bug!

Our first try at binging was "Dead Like Me",  very interesting show!  It bit macob though!

What else would you suggest?

The ACM  Awards were last night, and of course the show was incredible TV, as usual.  The CMA's and the ACM's both over the past number of years revolutionized awards shows in general, by making them practically concerts over just award shows.  

Both shows leaning heavily on showcasing its stars and music, as opposed to lots of other elements that have taken over other award shows. This years ACM's were no exception.  But there was something even more unique from this years awards in general.

Lots of raised eyebrows over some of the award winners, and that is fine, as it spurs a healthy debate.  As where there is absolutely no question artist like Luke Combs, Jason Aldean and others are dominating airplay, sales, both music and concerts, and score exceedingly high in the court of fans opinions, the night belonged to Keith Urban, Dan And Shay, and Kacey Musgraves,  

You can't say anymore that these award shows are predictable, this one is one of the most wide ranging ever, and will keep the conversation going on where we are going in the long run.

Talk is always good.

This past weekend, I had the chance to once again stay at Columbia Woodlands in Dover. If you have never heard of this place or heard me mention it on social media or on air, let me tell again and again this place is INCREDIBLE.

This gem is just off of 77 in Dover and features luxury cabins and glamping tents. They call it ‘glamping’ with a touch of rustic elegance, but in fact this place is so nice I want to live there. You feel like you have stepped into another world. The cabins and tents are gorgeous and beautifully decorated.

The woodlands themself- amazing. With your stay, season permitting, you get a golf cart which you can ride around and explore the grounds from chalets and ponds with epic views. They have a lake with canoes, hammocks, you can swim and fish, hike on numerous hiking trails and much more. This place is relaxing to the max. Each cabin has a fire pit and hot tub.

Every single time I visit, I instantly start planning my next stay. Whether you want a romantic getaway, a fun friend’s weekend or a family fun vacay- go to Columbia Woodlands. They also have all the amenities for parties and weddings. I tease the Warren saying we need to renew our vows! Ha! I am beyond serious when I say I love this place. It is everything. My happy place for sure!
